A classical light (bland?) Australian lager, with a touch of sweetness, that Carlton and United Breweries describe as "the World's beer". Great for quenching a thirst on a hot summer's afternoon. It was, during the 1960's, by far the most popular packaged beer in Victoria. Since then, it seems to have become a little "unfashionable" in its home state, as it's become more and more popular overseas. Naturally, it's available *everywhere*.
